The Congress unit in Arunachal Pradesh has called for a judicial inquiry into the handling of funds for state hydropower projects.
The Congress party unit in Arunachal Pradesh has formally requested a judicial probe into the allocation and utilization of funds earmarked for hydropower projects in the state. The demand comes amid growing concerns among party members about possible irregularities in the financial management of these schemes.
Party officials said the request aims to ensure transparency and accountability in the execution of large‑scale energy projects that are critical to the region's development. They have urged the appropriate authorities to appoint an independent judicial commission to examine the financial records and contractual arrangements.
The move adds pressure on the state administration, which has been promoting hydropower as a key driver of Arunachal's economic growth. No official response from the government has been recorded at the time of this report.
